This afternoon M and I watched another Iron Chef America episode.  This time Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto made a waffle with the secret ingredient:  curry.
Intrigued, I decided to try making my own curry waffles.  So I did!  I took the recipe for whole grain waffles that M and I have been using, and substituted a little flour with some curry and cinnamon.  Then I made the waffles in the usual way.  Also following in the Iron Chef's footsteps, I made my own syrup to go with it.  Well, sort of.  I combined a little water, some imitation maple syrup, and some honey in a small pot and cooked it down a bit on the stove top.  This was way too sweet, so I added a little curry powder (Iron Chef Morimoto had also put curry powder in his syrup).  I also sprinkled some powdered sugar on top of the waffle.  When all is said and done, it's actually a pretty good dish.  A little different for waffles, but not too different.  Morimoto served ice cream on the side, and I bet that's a pretty good combination.  I'm thinking in particular of cinnamon ice cream...  Mmmmm...   :-)
